Ego-net Community Mining Applied to Friend Suggestion
Summary: Introduces a parallel method to construct and cluster every ego-net at scale, exposing high-quality local communities. Derives neighborhood-local friend-suggestion features from cross-ego-net community co-occurrence, outperforming classic similarity measures theoretically and empirically.
